I said in the report and on the day it was launched that I was aware of the interest in the Oireachtas in considering this issue. However, people living in properties, homes or apartments who are paying management fees are also more than likely in receipt of services supplied by the local authority as well. We need to assess the contribution they make in that light. Currently, people living in houses in an estate and paying a management fee also benefit directly or indirectly from the services the local authority provides. We need to assess how such homeowners will also make a contribution to the provision of those public services.
